Doubt: A Parable

When: April 9-18 2010

Did he or didn't he? In John Patrick Shanley's 2004 play, a nun suspects her colleague of sexual misconduct with a young boy. The play was later adapted into a turgid 2008 movie featuring Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman (who each garnered Academy nods, as did co-stars Amy Adams and Viola Davis). Ira David Wood III directs this version against the real-life backdrop of another wave of Catholic sex abuse scandal, this time involving the Pope. Performances run through April 18. Tickets are $21 for adults, $15 for seniors and $13 for students and active military members. —Sarah Ewald
